One remake that I’ve not worried myself about is the Maniac one. Despite my being a huge fan of the original, due in no part from the incredible performance that Joe Spinell does, it’s a film that I wouldn’t mind seeing remade, granted, that the right people get their hands on it. Then Alexandre Aja got his hands on it, and I knew that everything would be fine.

This latest trailer is an International one, in English, but with French subtitles, and Wood is really selling his soft spoken madness. Soft spoken GORY madness. Aja must have some weird obsession with ankle tendons being cut, because he’s done it again. It really is wince inducing, as is the rest of the violence on display, including the final scalping. This is going to be an interesting film.

I’m just really hoping they’ve brought back the discussion about THE ULTIMATE.
